1. Tires are expensive
2. With advancing maturity the need to display this declines
3. Breaking driveline components is expensive
4. This is the Corvette Forum - not the Mustang / Camaro Forum

I didn't get old and have a vette just to have one, I pound on it, and nothing broke. The young man who bought it got a great car nothing but the best of aftermarket parts. BURN RUBBER !!!! You guys are getting old FAST !!!!!

Because it takes skill? I don't think so.

I don't do many burnouts anymore, not because they are difficult (they're not) and not because I am old (I am), but because I am too cheap now.
